The project addresses critical airport infrastructure maintenance by replacing existing fencing that has reached the end of its useful life. Work is scheduled for completion by August 24, 2029, and the grant directly supports airport safety and operational integrity at the regional facility.

This award reflects the FAA's strategic investment in airport infrastructure modernization and safety through the Airport Improvement Program, which supports development and maintenance of public-use airports nationwide.
